Over the summer I traveled to Chicago for The Pitchfork Music Festival. Ikea and ReadyMade Magazine worked together to build a freestanding structure at the festival to feature their talents. I was asked to come and make promotional photographs of the event and the structure which was on display.

Inspiration

Sometimes our fate resembles a fruit tree in the winter. Who would think that those branches would turn green again and blossom, but we hope it, we know it.
